Nice find but may not be of much help. The items you reference date 1987
and earlier and she was an architect, probably did work on the Bubb Road
facility.
Short blurb:
Rupp, Sigrid L.
Architectural Papers, 1976-1997

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH
Sigrid Lorenzen Rupp was born January 3, 1943, in Bremerhaven, Germany. She
was educated at the University of California, Berkeley, and received her
Bachelor of Architecture in 1966. Rupp founded SLR/Architects in East Palo
Alto, California, in 1976, which specialized in technical facilities,
industrial work, and residential structures. She closed the office in 1997.
Rupp served as President of California Women in Environmental Design, and
as a design advisor for the East Palo Alto Merchant's Association and East
Palo Alto Senior Center. She is a registered architect of California.
SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE
The Sigrid L. Rupp papers consist of job files, administrative files,
architectural drawings, contracts, and photographs of designs created by
Ms. Rupp and associates in her architecture firm from 1976 to 1997. The
files are organized by numerically by job number imposed by SLR/Architects.
Boxes 1-56 contain basic project files. Boxes 57-66 contain financial data.
Boxes 67-68 contain files for the Ravenwood school district projects. Boxes
69-70 contain miscellaneous office literature. Boxes 71-77 contain contract
files. Boxes 78-85 hold "morgue" files, many of which are duplicates of
materials held in the project files, but are files chronologically. Boxes
86-87 and the flatbox hold photographs of the completed projects. Boxes
88-96 and the oversized folder hold architectural drawings of the projects.

Please respond to

During a random Google, I stumbled across an interesting bit of
information. Apparently there is a box of documents related to Apple's
Bubb Road Newton research and development being stored as part of the
'International Archive of Women in Architecture' located in Virginia
Tech's archives.
What it's doing there is anyone's guess.
It's labeled as such:
BOX 28 (1987)
* 8724 Apple Computer - Bubb Road (R&D - Newton) Cupertino, CA
There's quite a few other Apple related boxes too:
BOX 29 (1987-1988)
* 8804 Apple Computer 10260 Bubb Road - Cupertino
BOX 33 (1988)
* 8836 Apple Computer - Bubb Road Reproduction/Mail
Here's the link to the list:

Anybody live close enough to Virginia Tech to check and see whether these
archive collections are publicly accessible?
I wonder what's in that box?
